The US Makes a Astonishing Statement About Ukraine.
Russia could destroy F-16s located in Poland and Romania if they are handed over to the Ukrainians.
Russia would be capable of destroying the F-16 fighter jets promised to the Ukrainian military at airbases in neighboring NATO countries, suggested former CIA analyst Larry
Johnson in an interview given to the Dialogue Works YouTube channel.
"The F-16s promised to Kiev are likely to be sent to Poland or Romania to use their airports. If they are hidden in Romania and Poland, then that's where they will be destroyed," he speculated.
According to the expert, if Bucharest and Warsaw deploy fighter jets on their territory, which are then used for military operations for Ukraine, these will become targets.
Johnson also warned that Russia possesses significantly greater capabilities thanks to its missiles.
Previously, Russian President Vladimir Putin, in a conversation with military pilots, stated that the F-16 fighter jets, even if supplied by Western countries to Ukraine, would not be capable of changing the situation on the battlefield. He added that if they were launched from third countries, they would become legitimate targets.
